The palace from 1864. It stands on the foundations of a much earlier building, probably from the 17th century. Under part of the palace there are still cellars with cross vaults, which are the remains of the former residential tower. At the northern and southern corners of the palace there were two more free-standing wings, which closed the entire composition. In the northern wing there was a brewery, and in the southern one there was an apartment for the estate manager. The palace survived World War II. It was the seat of the TODT organization, which, among other things, supervised the construction of the "Rise" complex. After the war, there was an Orphanage here, and from 1967 the palace became the property of the Głuszyce Textile Plants "Piast". Today, the palace is in private hands. It is slowly being renovated and its former appearance is being restored. The palace is open to visitors (on weekends). The southern outbuilding has also been renovated, but the northern one (the former brewery) has completely collapsed and only fragments of walls remain.
